Mrs. Sassard'sHot Pepper Jelly (case)<h5>Please pass the Pepper Jelly!</h5>
A mature jalapeño fruit is 2 to 3½ inches long and is commonly picked and consumed while still green, but occasionally it is allowed to fully ripen and turn crimson red. Originally of Spanish origin, the jalapeño is named after Xalapa (pronounced ha-la-pa), Veracruz where it was traditionally cultivated. This region of Mexico continues to be the primary region for its cultivation.
Jalapeños rate between 2,500–10,000 Scoville heat units. Compared to other chilis, the jalapeño has a heat level that varies from mild to hot depending on cultivation and preparation. The heat, caused by capsaicin and is concentrated in the membrane surrounding the seeds.*
Mrs. Sassard's Hot Pepper Jelly is prepared from freshly harvested jalapeño and bell peppers, pure cane sugar and natural pectin.
<h5>Health Benefits</h5>
Like other peppers,jalapeños are a rich source of vitamin C, with almost 17 milligrams in a small pepper. That is equal to 18 percent of the recommended daily allowance for men and 23 percent for women. Vitamin C is an antioxidant that helps prevent damage from free radicals, rogue molecules that can cause cell damage in your body. Jalapeños also supply a good amount of vitamin A, which supports skin and eye health; one pepper offers 17 percent of the RDA for men and 22 percent for women.
Weight loss benefits without the burn? The capsaicin in peppers has been shown to slightly curb appetite. And peppers can raise body temperature. That warming effect may have another benefit that may help with weight loss.
<h5>Serving Suggestions</h5>
• Serve on a cracker with cream cheese (our favorite)
• Use as a glaze on ham, roasted turkey or baked chicken</li>
• Use warmed as a dip for coconut shrimp or fried oysters
• Serve delicious sweet 'n spicy meatballs at your next party—in the morning before your party, place cooked meatballs (buy them in bulk at Costco or Sams), 1 16 ounce jar of your favorite BBQ sauce (<i>we love Bone Suckin' Sauce—made right here in Charleston)</i> and 1 jar of Mrs. Sassard's Hot Pepper Jelly into the crock pot on low for a few hours! Forget about it, let the crockpot do all the work, go make yourself look beautiful and then serve those meatballs with toothpicks at your soiree! Everyone will tell you they're the best sweet 'n spicy meatballs they've ever tasted!
